Extension of Schools Meal Contract with Eden Foodservices Ltd

Decision Maker: Cabinet

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: Yes

Purpose:

Approval is sought to execute an option to extend the current schools meals contract with Eden Foodservices Ltd for a further year until 2nd November 2014. Eden's existing performance is good. The recommended contract extension is considered to represent good value for money to the Council and local schools, and will also enable contract alignment with RBKC and WCC and delivery of a Tri-borough procurement in 2014.

Decision:

1.1      That the Council’s contract with Eden Foodservices Ltd. for the provision     of schools meals be extended to 2 November 2014, be approved.

 

1.2      That authority be delegated to the Cabinet Member for Education to approve any further decision needed in 2014 to extend the current contract with Eden beyond 2 November 2014, as an interim measure, in order to align contract termination with the commencement of a Tri-borough schools meals contract, be agreed.
